How to speed up 3D content production

Capturing and post-processing on multiple PCs, batch processing mode

Content post-processing on multiple PCs

You can set up your pipeline so that to shoot and do post-processing on multiple PCs at the same time. It is a great option if you deal with hundreds of 3D Views every day. For example, you can shoot a video for a 3D View using one PC while doing content editing on another PC. It will save you time, as you can shoot and edit at the same time and both tasks are independent.

How do you setup the system? First, you need to connect your PCs to a local network and create a shared folder on any of the PCs. Now you need to choose the shared folder as the data source for both PCs.

Please select ‘Settings’ in the main menu and then go to ‘Data folders’ to select your shared folder.

You can either enter the name of the shared folder or browse and select it.

You need to do this on both PCs. Now when you open a files browser inside the software, you can see 3D Views from the shared folder.

Batch converting of video files into 3D View (E3D) format

You can convert several video files into the 3D View (E3D) file format at the same time. After the processing has been finished, you can open E3D files to crop and tune images using filters.

To use this mode, press the ‘Batch processing’ button from the main menu and then ‘Import Video files’. Now you can select and add video files to the processing list. Press ‘Start’ to process and save your 3D Views.

Batch uploading of 3D Views (E3D) to your cloud account

You can upload multiple 3D Views to your Cappasity account when in the Batch processing mode. To use this mode, press the ‘Batch processing’ button from the main menu. After you press ‘Upload’, your 3D Views will be uploaded to your Cappasity account.

Now you can select 3D Views using Ctrl key and the mouse. Press ‘Add selected’ to add the selected files to the Processing list. The ‘Check SKU’ option can check if there are any files with the same SKUs already on your account.

You can tick the ‘Overwrite if SKU already exists’ checkbox to overwrite files without waiting for the user response.
